Why do casual players feel like they know everything about competitive smash? They talk about FS as if theres no randomness at all and a metagame is simple to develop for every single situation.
I love this forum.

You just learned the word metagame didnāt you ?
Glacier is a harsh mistress.
On large stages, the Glacier barely occupies space, and you need to chase your opponent into it, to deal piddly-damage.
On TOO small stages, itās more a hazard to you then to them. It seems to have odd properties with semi-solid platforms that can let the Climbers slip through them, and can easially wind up to Nana and Popo sliding to their death with no say in the matter because thereās virtually no where to stand but Glacier. While they continue to get hit and juggledā¦ you just slide off into oblivion. (See: Bottom floor of Castle Siege) Not to mention AI Nana just seems to think of it as a giant playground slide at times. WHEEEE-WAAA!
But then thereās a few stages that are JUST RIGHT- stages where it gives a couple footholds big enough to exist on, but small enough to prevent escape from the glacier itself, and you can rack up a ton of damage and, if you see 'em freeze, attempt a kill move.
Because it takes time to counter strategies that seem ātoo goodā. But hey you might as well go play MVC2 and pick Iceman or Jill

God damn it.
Pit has something else?
I now āofficiallyā hate him.
That probably works on other FSās too considering it can block physical hits as well.
Thank you, Sakurai.
O.oā¦youāre shitting meā¦
But he takes no chip damage! You canāt get around that, ban him now!
But seriously, stop killing āmetagameā and stop ripping on final smashes. Itās hilarious how scrubby competitive smashers can be.

Fuck Pit . That is ridiculous.
Got a real question:
Whatās the best way to deal with a Link who has a FS?
dodge, dodge like its going out of style. or throw someone else in the way :lovin:
I probably pissed that random link player off something fierce.
basic brawl, Im lucario. he is link and 2 other players that dont matter. link player gets the smashball and I get lucky with a dodge. match continues and he gets the smashball again, I watch him like a hawk, āwhen is he going to use the damn thing!?ā, then he just stands still, oh shit!!! I grab the other player and toss him behind me, link hits the other guy and the timer runs out before he can make the kill.
I got lucky and I won the match :party:
Run away and if you suck at that kiss your ass good-bye.
Can you avoid it with a dodge/roll?
Pit is probably the easiest to punish out of his FS animation. Iāve nailed Capt. Falcon a few times too.
Also, itās almost completely unavoidable taking damage from Lucasā final smash on small stages like Wario Ware. Though I doubt Wario Ware will be in tourney play, I just wanted to point that out.

I tried shielding everyone elseās final smash with Pits magic shield. It doesnāt work, and it seems as if they only did that with Samus to nerf her even more :lol:.
if youāre one of the characters with a counter (ex.ike, marth, lucario, peach) you could just activate your counter whenever theyāre near you to get them off your back since the cold damage can be countered.
Getting out of the NZ isānt all that easy BTW.
I realize that now, thanks.
